Is there any Free software which can edit PDF files and convert them to other formats?

A link to Google doesn't help much.  There are many non-free
applications out there.  If you check the websites on the Google page
you sent me you will find many non-free applications.

Yes, but among them are those which are free, or almost free (shareware for example). Usually when someone sends you a link that partly answers the question you asked you try to thank for that part, and ignore the other. Of course the local custom for computer geeks may be different. I wouldn't know.

The problem will be, as usual, Hebrew. Israel is a very small market. I heard that Amber is good (2nd page of results with the key above). Meanwhile you can use Adobe's free service:

send the file to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and you will get it back as html. Or put the document on the web and click on the link 'convert' on the adobe page shown above.

I'm looking for a Free software, as in Capital F.  With source code and
everything.  Search for "The Free Software Definition" or look at this page:

http://www.fsf.org/licensing/essays/free-sw.html

"Free software" is a matter of liberty, not price.

Well, how about writing one ? You could start with the sources of xpdf which already does more than half the job, and just add a little glue code to generate html. I am sure that you can make it work.

Or hack KOffice so it works as you like it. KOffice is free enough imho.
